The 49ers, on the other hand, are much younger and seem to have everything in control. Plus, they don’t have to worry about paying their young quarterback (Colin Kaepernick) for some time, if they so choose.

“They’re incredible,” John Harbaugh said of Jim’s 49ers. “That team is going to be here for many years to come.”

What the Niners need to do is fix the back end of their secondary and say adios to kicker David Akers. Other than that, not much. This is the most complete team in the NFL.

But the Ravens just completed probably the most remarkable postseason in history. This team should have lost to the Chargers, for cripes sake.

FLACCO FLAP

Flacco already has turned down a multiyear deal that would have paid him $16-million per. If there can be no agreement, the Ravens could franchise tag him (but it would cost them $20 million in cap space). But now that he definitely has reached elite status, the consensus is that he’ll sign a deal that eventually will pay him more than $100 million.

He just completed one of the great offseasons ever, 11 touchdown passes, no interceptions, 117 passer rating.

“If you say I’m going to be some kind of celebrity, I’m cool with it,” Flacco was saying Monday morning. “I met JZ and Beyonce after the game and I don’t think I would have met them if we didn’t win.”

Asked if he was shocked to win MVP (maybe the last of the week’s stupid questions), Flacco said: “I don’t know if I was shocked. I was shocked I got a car.
